The Academy's visual effects branch has gone a bit overboard this year, but can you blame them? Pool just about any five out of their nomination shortlist for 2016 and you'd likely have a worthy selection. Normally, this branch reveals a 10-strong lineup set to advance to the bake-off stage of voting, but they've doubled their count this year. The big losers this year, at this stage, would be Assassin's Creed, The Legend of Tarzan and A Monster Calls (how they failed to push past some of this bunch I'll never know) though there'll definitely be many more when nominations are announced on the 24th of January - this category was chock-full of huge surprises last year. Check out the full list of 20 just here:
